Very useful. Should have been part of iPhone Settings app.

If you know what a dB is this app becomes immediately informative. Sure, it would be nice to se the device names but it’s not that hard to figure out which signals are changing as you walk around. This just became my “Hearing aid Locator App”.

Janky but... helpful

I was freaking out because I lost my Apple Pencil for the hundredth time (that pesky little thing!) and i downloaded this app. At first it was really confusing because the devices don't have names. I turned on the sound and it kept getting closer and closer, and soon enough my mom dug it out of our stupid couch.

It works !!!

Awesome app! I lost my AirPod and this app helped me find it. It helps if you turn on the sound though. I walked around my house and when I got close to where my AirPod was it started beeping. I’m so thankful!
